Chapter 137
Mrs. Tian Dasao and Mrs. Tian Ersao looked at each other, both of them showing contempt for Tian Hao's decision to become a son-in-law, but they were both smart enough not to say anything for the time being.
"Even if you can't find a wife in your lifetime, you are not allowed to be a live-in son-in-law!" Tian's mother said, "Only men who are extremely cowardly would be allowed to be a live-in son-in-law! Do you think you are not cowardly enough that you actually rush to be a live-in son-in-law?"
"This is the first time I know that you value me so much." Tian Hao's dark eyes were a little cold. "Usually when I'm at home, you all despise me. Even my two nephews laugh at me. I thought you didn't care about me at all. I'm going to be someone else's son-in-law and not live at home. Isn't that good?"
"Little brother, look at what you said. When did your two nephews laugh at you? They are just young and don't know the seriousness of their words. They say whatever they think. If you are unhappy about what they said, you can say it out loud at that time. Why keep it in your heart?" Mrs. Tian defended her son.
Mrs. Tian nodded in agreement: "That's right."
Tian Hao ignored them and continued to say to Tian's father and mother: "I haven't found a wife yet, and you all always dislike me. If I really can't find a wife in my life and really live at home for the rest of my life, you will dislike me to death. Instead of this, I might as well be someone's son-in-law."
Tian Hao said to his father again: "Dad, you said that our family has enough money to marry me off, but is there room for my wife and I to live in the house? If I really marry a wife, will it be my eldest brother who will give me a room, or my second brother? You can't let me live in the living room with my new wife."
Mrs. Tian Da and Mrs. Tian Er wanted to say, "Why should we give the room to you?" But when the words came to their lips, they both stopped in time and observed the expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Tian.
Tian Hao added: "Even if my new wife and I can live in the living room at first, where will we live when we have more and more children?"
Tian Hao's decision to become a live-in son-in-law of the Wu family was a carefully considered one. This was driven by his affection for Wu Zhenzhen, but also by practical considerations. More importantly, he had witnessed the Tian family's long-standing disdain and indifference towards him, and he didn't see their family name as worthy of inheritance.
Tian Hao finally said, "Don't look at me like this, with my limp. Many people look down on me and no one wants to marry me, but I still hope to have a wife. You should be as lucky as I am that Wu Zhenzhen doesn't despise my limp."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Father Tian was furious. "Everyone in the family compound on both sides knows that the Wu family just can't find anyone willing to marry into their family. That's why Wu Zhenzhen has never married, and the Wu family has always been laughed at! As for you, how come the Wu family is willing to let you become a son-in-law? How come it's a gift to you? You are so spineless that you can't live without a woman!"
"You think I can live without a woman, but you keep urging me to get married and look down on me for not being able to find a wife." Tian Hao replied coldly.
Father Tian was choked by Tian Hao's words. He roared angrily: "No matter what you say, we still say the same thing. Even if you can't find a wife in your whole life, you are not allowed to be a son-in-law!"
"If I can't find a wife in my entire life, everyone will laugh at me; if I become a son-in-law, everyone will laugh at me too. What's the difference between the two?" Tian Hao said.
"You don't have to say anything. Anyway, you are not allowed to be a son-in-law and bring shame to our family!" Father Tian said with the final word.
The next day, Tian Hao waited for Wu Zhenzhen on the road she had to take to go to work, just like yesterday.
The two of them walked together for a while.
"I talked to my parents last night, and they don't agree, but I will convince them. Can you wait for me?" Tian Hao said.
Wu Zhenzhen wasn't surprised that Tian Hao's parents objected. In this day and age, few parents would agree to let their sons become live-in sons-in-law. Otherwise, she wouldn't have remained unmarried for so long.
"I can wait for you, but how do you plan to convince them? What if they still disagree?" Wu Zhenzhen said.
Tian Hao hadn't figured out how to convince his parents, but he was very determined to marry Wu Zhenzhen. He didn't care whether he was a live-in son-in-law or not. He even felt that with his conditions, being Wu Zhenzhen's live-in son-in-law was a blessing for him.
"Even if they still don't agree, I still want to marry you." Tian Hao looked at Wu Zhenzhen and said firmly.
It was the first time Wu Zhenzhen had encountered a member of the opposite sex looking at her so firmly. She was moved and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for you until you convince your parents first."
The Tian family lives in the compound next to theirs. If Tian's father and mother don't agree, even if Tian Hao marries her, Tian's father and mother will always come and cause trouble.
Wu Zhenzhen doesn't want to bring herself a lot of trouble because of getting married.
As long as Tian Hao can convince his parents, she is willing to marry Tian Hao immediately.
…
After Wu Qiaoer learned from Yu Tong that Ye Fuyue was pregnant, she found a break and brought some canned food to visit Ye Fuyue in the slum.
"How are you feeling recently?" Wu Qiaoer handed the various canned foods she brought, including canned meat and canned fruit, to Chen Yao and asked Ye Fuyue.
"It's okay. I was having some nausea and retching a while ago, but lately even that has become less frequent."
"I heard that morning sickness usually occurs in the first three months, but after that, the symptoms will subside. It should be almost three months now, and your reaction isn't as severe as before."
Ye Fuyue calculated in her mind and found that it was almost three months.
"How are you and Xiang Jialiang getting along?" Ye Fuyue asked.
"I was just about to tell you this." Wu Qiao'er said mysteriously, "You should cherish the days when I can bring you canned food. In the future, it might be difficult for me to get these cans."
Ye Fuyue immediately understood the deeper meaning behind Wu Qiaoer's words. She smiled and said, "It seems that you and Xiang Jialiang are getting along well and are planning to get married."
Wu Qiaoer smiled shyly. "Jialiang is a really good guy. The longer I spend with him, the more I feel that way. After my mother found out that you introduced Xiang Jialiang to me, she wanted to come and thank you in person. I told her not to bother you because you were pregnant. I asked her to prepare a big red envelope for you, and she'll give it to you directly on the day Jialiang and I get married."
"You're my friend. I didn't want to go to the countryside back then, but you arranged so many blind dates for me. Now that I have someone suitable, I'll introduce them to you. Your mother doesn't even need to prepare a red envelope for me." After a pause, Ye Fuyue continued, "It's not your turn to prepare one. Xiang Jialiang will definitely prepare one."
